BEST FROM: aBlogtoWatch & Friends August 31, 2022 best replica watches sites to buy from uk
Geneva Watch Days is happening now, but let’s take a look back at some of the best stories from the past month. We begin with a story about GMT best replica watches sites to buy from uk. Some argue that the GMT complication is the most useful, and it would be hard to disagree. If you are looking for a GMT watch, we found two exceptionally thoughtful and accessible designs. Speaking of affordable watches, we also take a closer look at Tissot’s new 35mm and 40mm PRX watches with green dials. We also have the CASIO A159WAD-1D, which is probably the world’s most affordable factory diamond-set watch.
From around the Web, we give you some tips on how to spot a fake dial on a vintage Rolex Datejust. We also talk a little about the hobby of watch-collecting, the watch industry, and how recent trends and developments have left one collector feeling jaded about watches. And finally, we have a story about the rising occurrence of watch thefts and how it has altered the wearing habits of some collectors.
1. FEAR OF THEFT HAS SOME WATCH FANS LEAVING THEIR BEST AT HOME
Watch theft is increasing around the world. We see it almost every day on social media. London is particularly hard-hit. The London Metropolitan Police reported 67 cases between May 31 and June 27 this year, an increase of around 60% in the previous four weeks’ total. One incident stood out: A machete-wielding thief on a moped forced a couple wearing a Patek Philippe and an Audemars Piguet to surrender their watches. This has forced watch lovers to take measures. Many are leaving their most prized possessions at home and will only wear more affordable watches to avoid drawing unwanted attention.
2. IN-DEPTH: HOW TO SPOT A FAKE DIAL IN A VINTAGE ROLEX DATEJUST
A vintage Datejust — particularly a reference 16xx — with its moderate case size, classic Datejust looks, and robust movement make it one of the most timeless watches you can buy. It was in production for nearly two decades too, which means supply is rather plentiful. However, like any watch purchase, one has to be wary about buying fakes or an example that came with replica parts. Obviously, you are encouraged to buy from a trusted source. But if you are looking for a specific example that’s hard to find, you might have to look elsewhere. And if you do, this article gives you some handy tips on how to spot one with a fake dial.
3. FROM THE EDITOR: HERE’S WHY I AM DONE BUYING ANY MORE WATCHES. MOST LIKELY FOREVER.
There’s no question that the hobby of watch collecting has been a little crazy and intense, especially during the past couple of years. Fueled by a combination of increasing numbers of people getting into watches, excess cash because of cryptocurrency, a booming stock market, and questionable practices at many authorized dealers, many popular watches have become unobtainable in retail. Worse still is seeing many of these same watches turning up online marketplaces and at greatly inflated prices. It’s enough to sap the fun out of this hobby and make some enthusiasts give up altogether. best replica watches sites to buy from uk
4. TALKING JACOB & CO. WATCHES WITH SANTA LAURA
If you spend any amount of time on Instagram gawking at watches, you’ll likely come across the collection of Santa Laura. It’s an impressive one not only because of the sheer quantity but also because of its quality. Sure, you’ll see a couple of hype watches, but by and large, the collection is largely comprised of eclectic watches by independent watchmakers. And one independent brand that features heavily in his collection is Jacob & Co. The company gets a lot of flak for its outlandish watches, but if you take a step back and try to understand them better, you’ll see why some collectors find them so appealing.
5. UP CLOSE: FRANC VILA FVF1 C2 TOURBILLON SUPERLIGERO
FVF is short for “Franc Vila Founder,” and it is the second act of Spanish watch designer Franc Vila. The original Franc Vila brand was founded in 2005 and quickly became one of the hottest independent watch brands. But boom turned to bust and Mr. Vila was kicked out of the brand he founded not long after its 10th anniversary. In 2018, Mr. Vila decided to make a comeback and the FVF1 C2 Tourbillon in its first watch. As is the case with most watches by independent watchmakers, the FVF1 looks like nothing else. It’s an original look and an original design. It also has an eclectic mix of complications. There’s a roller day indicator and day/night display, but no date.
